Hi

I want to put other engine in my 1.6 75 HP ibiza.. i thinking about 2.0 gti 8v
Now i would like to know if any piece is compatible with 1.6? Maybe gearbox? And what everything i need for swap?

Thx

you will need a front subframe, engine, engine mounts, gearbox, driveshafts & hubs (with brakes)

I've got the same engine in the Vario, and most of that is going in the bin when I put the 16v in

So I also need all that pieces if i put 2.0 16v inside?Or something more?
I was thinking that you need less stuff for swap 1.6 8v ->2.0 8v... but if you must change many pieces than is better to swap 2.0 16v

you have to change all teh same bits for a 16v as 8v i'm afraid.
